APPLICOS PS48401 PXI Power Supply

The PS48401 is a Programmable DC Power supply in a 2-slot PXI / cPCI form factor.

Featuring a fully isolated output capable of providing 0-48 VDC / 2 A / 40 W. It offers a programmable current limit and the ability to measure the output voltage and current under software or trigger control.

Special functions:

  • Measure output voltage or current, software controlled.
  • Measure output voltage or current, external trigger controlled.
  • Update output voltage and current limit, external trigger controlled.
  • Sequence above functions and store measured values into on-board memory

Output noise at 17V / 2A (BW DC-1MHz)
